NARUTO
We're on air from the studio of the Hidden Leaf, from the other side of the Herz!
We're going to have a crunching good time today too!
Kyu kyu!
Aniplex Hour!
Uzumaki Naruto's Oo! Naruto Nippon!
Good evening! I'm Takeuchi Junko, the personality of this show!
And the ManPa who's doing this program with me is this person!
The traitor who betrayed Konoha - one of the legendary Sannin!
The person who's always deathly pale from sunrise!
The voice of Orochimaru - Kujira-san datte ba yo!

OROCHIMARU
It's because I'm always having a hangover.
That's why my face is always deathly pale.
Good evening!
I'm Kujira, the voice of Orochimaru DOESU!!

NARUTO
I see!
So that's what it is!
So it's not make up!
It's a hangover!

OROCHIMARU
I'm always unhealthy. Basically.

NARUTO
Because you're always drinking strong sake!

OROCHIMARU
Yes, that's why I'm always giving off such bad vibes.
Disgusting.

NARUTO
I see.
What a way to kickstart the program.
But today... today I have to say goodbye to Kujira-san!
It's going to be so lonely!
So please allow me to reveal your true colours~

OROCHIMARU
I still wanna come~

NARUTO
So while we tear off Kujira-san's faces one by one today, we'll work hard towards a good show!
In this program, if your mail gets read out your rank will increase accordingly.
In other words, it's a selection test based on your strength datte ba yo!
Currently, all of you listening to the radio are candidates for graduation in the Academy.
According to how often your mail is read out, you'll raise to the Genin, Chuunin and Jounin ranks!
If you become Jounin you'll be invited to the studio!
It'll become something cool!
Everybody, please work hard!
Then let's introduce some mails without further ado!
Kujira-san, please!

OROCHIMARU
Academy Student from Saitama, Narutorio-san's mail.

NARUTO
Thank you!

OROCHIMARU
"Takeuchi-san, Kujira-san, good evening.
Takeuchi-san is female, but."
Ah?
"Kujira-san, neither the name nor the voice helps me determine Kujira-san's gender.
Male or female - which?!
Please tell me! It's really bothering me datte ba yo!"
Well, I'm very sure about it myself though.

NARUTO
You know, Kujira-san? We /really/ received so many mails about this.
The same question!
"Is he a guy? Is she a girl?"

OROCHIMARU
Now that, is a secret.

NARUTO
You won't tell us?

OROCHIMARU
Well, I'll just say it out here.
I'm actually.
Matsumoto Wakako is my real name.
I'm a girl!

NARUTO
OH MAN! WAKA-CHAN!

OROCHIMARU
Awww I feel so embarrassed!

NARUTO
I think there are a lot of people who are finally relieved of this burden now.

OROCHIMARU
Isn't that right.
Many people ask me the same thing.

NARUTO
I wonder why?
Well, but it's true that if we just listen to your voice, it really is androgenous.
It's more male than female, actually.

OROCHIMARU
I often get misunderstandings.
In the past, when people try to hit on me, "Ojou-san, ojou-san!"
"Hey lady, lady!"
When I say, "Yes, what do you need?"
They go, "Oh, you're not a girl!"
Then I'd be like, "No wait! You were right! I'm female!"

NARUTO
What a misunderstanding.
There's just one more question that we received a lot of mail about.
Orochimaru is this really dark, black guy, isn't he?
Is Kujira-san really like that too?

OROCHIMARU
I /am/ a bit diabolical.

NARUTO
So, just how diabolical are you? Let's find out with this question.
Academy Student from Saitama, Hina-san.
Thank you for your mail.

OROCHIMARU
Thank you for your mail.

NARUTO
"I have a request for Kujira-san, who voices Orochimaru."

OROCHIMARU
What may that be?

NARUTO
"I have a request for the dark, black, diabolical Kujira-san."

OROCHIMARU
What?

NARUTO
"Please sing me an Orochimaru Version for the Sasoriza no Onna (Scorpio Lady) song.
I'm begging you please!"

OROCHIMARU
I understand.

NARUTO
Time to let loose your diabolical nature.

OROCHIMARU
My diabolical nature.
I'll sing it for you.
Then, here we go.
*hums*

NARUTO
Oh, you're even singing the opening!
Argh! Too long!

OROCHIMARU
Yes yes.

NARUTO
Okay, ready, go!

OROCHIMARU
Iie watashi wa~ sasoriza no onna~
(Oh, I am a woman born under Scorpio~)
Nfufufufu~

NARUTO
... is this really Orochimaru...

OROCHIMARU
Oki no doku sama warau ga iiwa
(Just smile in the presence of the big poison tail)

NARUTO
Just like Mikawa Kenichi?!
(Mikawa Kenichi is the original singer of this song)

OROCHIMARU
Yes, something like that.
Onna no kokoro mo shiranai de
(Not knowing a woman's heart~)
Damashite kegashite kizutsuketa~
(I was cheated, injured and hurt thoroughly~)
Baka na~ otoko wa~ anata! Anata! Anata na no yo~
(Stupid young~ man~ That's you! You! YOU~~)
Chachan chachachan! AA~~
Iie watashi wa~
(Oh I am~)

NARUTO
That's enough. Kujira-san. Kujira-san?

OROCHIMARU
Sasori no doku wa~
(The scorpion's poison~)
Asonde kiku no yo~~
(That's what I played with~)

NARUTO
And with that, the one who's going wild all the way to the end tonight is Kujira-san.

OROCHIMARU
I'm sorry.

NARUTO
Okay! Let's give our trademark lines!
Give your night to me tte ba yo!

OROCHIMARU
My name is Orochimaru. If you think you wish to see me again, request for me like your life depended on it!

NARUTO
Diabolical!!

OROCHIMARU
That I am.

BACKGROUND SONG
Iie watashi wa sasoriza no onna~~
(Oh, I am a woman born under Scorpio~)

NARUTO
... we're in the wrong program here.

OROCHIMARU
*sings along*

NARUTO
Why the hell are we listening to this right after the commercials?!

OROCHIMARU
Like you said, we're in the wrong show.
Is this O-! NARUTO Nippon?

NARUTO
Just now. We were wondering if it was Orochimaru or Mikawa Kenichi. Like, if those diabolical words were real and if you were just lying when you said you were a girl?
So many things were mixed up!
Everybody must be wondering if the show is already over!

OROCHIMARU
It was grand chaos.
Mikawa Kenichi... is pretty good for Orochimaru, right? Those men...

NARUTO
I'm starting to completely not understand anymore.
Just who is Kujira-san?
It's Kujira-san!

OROCHIMARU
Yes. I was born in the Antartica.
Don't understand at all!

NARUTO
We can't go on like this.
All right, let's go into this section!
Kougaimuyou no Special Ninmu! (Special Mission: Futile Revelations)
In a short while, we'll be intruding upon your hearts!
In this mission, we'll have the monthly personality Kujira-san perform a job from the list as a bonus track to the listeners.
What's recorded on the list is:
1) Morning Call
2) Handphone Message
3) Goodnight Call
4) Confession of the Heart
5) Message of Encouragement
6) Listener's Request
Those are the six.
We'll let the message be randomly picked.
You can only hear a message from the monthly personality on this program.
You can use it however you want to.
To put it in other words - your very own good omen charm!
And so Kujira-san please choose one.

OROCHIMARU
Hm, how about this?

NARUTO
This one?
Ooh! Here we go!
The special mission we're going to let Kujira-san do will be a morning call!

OROCHIMARU
I understand.

NARUTO
An alarm clock!
Ready?

OROCHIMARU
Okay!

NARUTO
Then let's go, special mission for Kujira-san!

OROCHIMARU
Good morning.
Wake up.
Wake up.
Wake up~
Wake up~~
Wake up now.

NARUTO
I can see Mikawa Kenichi in you!

OROCHIMARU
It's so Mikawa Kenichi-like!
Well Orochimaru is very Mikawa Kenichi-like anyway.

NARUTO
So yeah.
Can I request for something too?

OROCHIMARU
Please go ahead.

NARUTO
I wonder what will a confession of the heart done by the Mikawa Kenichi-like Orochimaru sound like?
What will it sound like?

OROCHIMARU
I love you.
I love you.
What about you?
I love you~
Well?

NARUTO
... this thing can only be heard once and nevermore.

OROCHIMARU
You really have to look for the right opportunity.

NARUTO
It's so scary!

OROCHIMARU
You'd get more worried than anything else.
"What about you?"

NARUTO
Don't say anymore!

OROCHIMARU
Right.
It wouldn't work. How scary.
Cute, huh?
These words are the first steps out, you could say.

NARUTO
Yeah, yeah.
It's so interesting that it starts becoming pretty cute.
Wow!
Very good.
This is a very delicious bonus track for you, everybody.
Please use it!
And with that, we're collecting requests from everybody for this corner!

Uzumaki Naruto's Oo! Naruto Nippon!

NARUTO
Oh! Naruto Nippon! We've got a special guest, the voice of Orochimaru - Kujira-san with us today!
This is sudden but!
Time for Whale Watching!!! (kujira means whale)
So anyway. Up to now, we STILL don't know what's up with Kujira-san!!
So I thought since this is the end, we'd tear off all the faces of Kujira-san one by one.

OROCHIMARU
Yes please.

NARUTO
I'm gonna work hard.
Academy Student from Tokyo, Tsucchi-san.
Thank you for your mail.
"Good evening. I'm always having a good time listening.
I'm in Secondary 3. I'm taking my exams."
Oh, please work hard!
"It's so hard to learn and study everyday!
But I took some time out to support you!
It's sudden! But I have a question.
What kind of secondary and high school students were you both?
If you have anything that left an impression on you please do tell us! Please do!"
That's what she wrote.

OROCHIMARU
Me? Let's see.
I wore sailor-fuku uniforms.
I wore sailor-fuku uniforms to school!

NARUTO
Aw man!
Actually I did too.

OROCHIMARU
My school was a secondary cum high school compound.

NARUTO
Oh, really.

OROCHIMARU
It's all the way until college.
I was in a girls' school.

NARUTO
Gi... Girls-only secondary and high school!

OROCHIMARU
That's right.

NARUTO
Wow!

OROCHIMARU
I said things like Gokigen yo~ (A very archaic and polite way of asking how the other person is. Used often among feudal nobles.)

NARUTO
It's THE Gokigen yo!!

OROCHIMARU
In the day and in the night!

BOTH
Gokigen yo~

OROCHIMARU
Cool huh?
I actually /said/ things like Gokigen yo!

NARUTO
Oh and - Osoreirimasu~ (The same level of vocab that is supposed to be 'thank you for your concern')

OROCHIMARU
Osoreirimasu~
Gokigen yo~

NARUTO
Oh my! How very ojou-sama of you!

OROCHIMARU
And the school motto was 'Haji o shire' (Know thy shame).
I mean, really! Know thy shame?!
They really got us there. It was really bad for us.
Know thy shame.

NARUTO
Oh wow.
Miyakibyou-san is running away.

OROCHIMARU
Know thy shame.

NARUTO
Well at least, they didn't use Haji o Shiremashou or Shirinasai to complete the Ojou-sama picture of the school.
(-mashou and -nasai are both very polite sentence suffixes that are usually used by girls)

BOTH
Haji o shire.
(haji o shire is a more commanding way of phrasing it.)

OROCHIMARU
Great, huh?

NARUTO
It's a school motto that's so hot blooded.

OROCHIMARU
It's like, easy to understand but still quite hard to get it - Haji o shire.

NARUTO
I really think that actually Kujira-san is really androgenous.
Even including this.
So since you were in an all-girls school from secondary to high school - were you very popular?

OROCHIMARU
Ah yes, about that.
Well, it was just that I was going as a substitute,
but anyway I went to a ski lodge, all four of us girls.
So while they went to ski I was alone looking after the bags.
Then, the lift stopped and some older looking girls came... about university age? About four years older then?
Anyway they were very pretty onee-chans.
They asked me, "Want to go for some tea?"
Then me, "Tea? Oh, sure, but... I'm with some friends. Could they come?"
So my friends came back and asked me what's going on and stuff.
So the girls who asked me out were like, "What the? You're with /girls/?"
... Like, "What do you mean, I'm with girls??!
I'm a girl!"

NARUTO
So you were /really/ androgenous!

OROCHIMARU
Yes, I was very tanned.
I was just looking after the bags while they ski.
I don't really understand either.

NARUTO
But Kujira-san, I think you really must have looked like a cute little boy when you were young.

OROCHIMARU
Well yes, I was very tanned and my face is pretty in between.
Really.
And anyway after that event I grew my hair out and wore more girly clothes.

NARUTO
Hoping that long hair can offset any misunderstandings?

OROCHIMARU
Then when I go to parties I introduce myself like this:
*squeal* I'm Matsumoto Wakako!
"Eh? You're a girl? YOU'RE a GIRL?!"
Damn rude.
I went crazy from then on.

NARUTO
Woah that's so cool!
So did you get a lot of chocolates as presents?

OROCHIMARU
Yes, yes, I did.

NARUTO
That's so good~

OROCHIMARU
Aw, man, really.

NARUTO
"Senpai. I love you!"
Do you get confessions like that?

OROCHIMARU
They did ask me to exchange diaries.
Exchange diaries!
But anyway I thought it was too troublesome.
I wasn't able to turn all of them down.
So many books came to me.
So finally, when someone else came I put my foot down.
"That's enough. Stop there!"
And I refused the exchange.

NARUTO
No way!
That's good, isn't it?

OROCHIMARU
That's good, right?

NARUTO
They stopped me from doing things like that every month or so too.

OROCHIMARU
Really?
Anyway I turned them down saying, "That's enough!"

NARUTO
But Kujira-san, if you don't talk they may mistake you for a cute boy or a cool guy.
But once you talk it becomes funny, right?

OROCHIMARU
Yes. I'm so oba-san.
I'm entirely oba-san now too.

NARUTO
This gag must be something new and shocking and disillusioning to the females of /that/ age.

OROCHIMARU
I sound like an oba-san even last time too, when I talked.

NARUTO
You're the greatest.
I really love you.
Well let's read one more mail out.
Kujira-san, please help us.

OROCHIMARU
Yes yes.
Academy Student from Tottori, Taisumaki Kamaboko.

NARUTO
Yes, thank you for your mail.

OROCHIMARU
"Takeuchi-san, Kujira-san, good evening.
Anyway Kujira-san you're doing the role of the evil among all evil, he who has no female subordinates-"
What's that mean?!
"- the role of Orochimaru!
Do you think you have a side to you that resembles Orochimaru?"

NARUTO
Do you?

OROCHIMARU
Hmm. Our hairstyles, maybe.

NARUTO
That's not your character. It's just your appearance!

OROCHIMARU
Well then, we're both very diabolical.

NARUTO
But Orochimaru's diabolical nature is really dark.
Kujira-san's diabolical nature is... just... funny! From start to finish!

OROCHIMARU
Well, yes, I suppose that happens.

NARUTO
Dragging people down into the darkness just to make others laugh.

OROCHIMARU
Sometimes to make people laugh, I may even have to bare my backside just like that.
Please laugh.

NARUTO
Wait.
Wasn't your resolution for this year Aiyaya?

OROCHIMARU
Oh! Aiyaya! Yes! That's right. Aiyaya!

NARUTO
You sure you should let people see your backside like this?!

OROCHIMARU
I'll go Aiyaya while letting it be seen.

NARUTO
Is this really all right?
Oh man that was so fun.
I'm sorry, we can't go any further than this.

OROCHIMARU
Not at all! I've become an Arama at any rate.

NARUTO
And with a broadcast like that, we've come to the end of O-! NARUTO Nippon in such a short time!
We're collecting feedback from you all for the program!
Send your questions to the cast, and of course, Henge no Jutsu suggestions, your Nindou, Music Care, etc etc!
Where should your missives all go to?
Kujira-san, please!

OROCHIMARU
Yes!
Postcards should go to:
PO 552-8501
Radio Oosaka
O-! Naruto Nippon
Email should be in small letters:
naruto@obc1314.com

NARUTO
If your mail gets read out you'll get /something/ as a present.
Please absolutely write your address and name to us when sending!
Otherwise we can't give you anything!

OROCHIMARU
What is this /something/?

NARUTO
I wonder.
And now, who is the ManPa for February we're so concerned about?
The person who acknowledged me - Iruka-sensei! Seki Toshihiko-san, his voice!
And so, please leave a message for Seki-san, Kujira-san.

OROCHIMARU
Seki-san.
Wigs really suit you.
Please wear wigs during your everyday life too.
You look cool in them.

NARUTO
And I'll ask Seki-san just what in the world is this about when February comes.

OROCHIMARU
Please do that!

NARUTO
So anyway, thank you so much for this one month, Kujira-san!

OROCHIMARU
Really!

NARUTO
But we weren't able to reveal anything about you at all so please come again.

OROCHIMARU
Still so many secrets to go.
So many secrets to go.

NARUTO
So see you again same time next week!
You've been listening to Takeuchi Junko and!

OROCHIMARU
Ku. Ji. Ra!

BOTH
Bye bye~

OROCHIMARU
Aiyaya~~

NARUTO
Stay tuned for Aniplex Hour - Hagaren Housoukyoku after the commercials datte ba yo!

OROCHIMARU
Aiyaya, aiyaya, aIyAyA~~
Aiyaya~~

NARUTO
You don't sound like it at all!!
